The vouchers may be redeemed from 6 a.m. to 1 p.m. that day only -- the
traditional day that kicks off the U.S. holiday shopping season -- at four
Detroit-area Taubman malls, located within an hour's drive of the
international border.
"With the Canadian dollar at a record high, there's never been a better
time for Canadians to shop in the United States," notes Karen Mac Donald,
director, communications for Taubman.
Travelers leaving Windsor, Ontario who pay the toll to pass through the
tunnel beginning at 5 a.m. will receive a voucher for the mall gift card to be
redeemed at the customer service centers of The Mall at Partridge Creek in
Clinton Township, Fairlane Town Center in Dearborn, Twelve Oaks Mall in Novi
or Great Lakes Crossing in Auburn Hills, Mich. Windsor Tunnel staff will
distribute one voucher per vehicle. The voucher must be redeemed by 1 p.m.
"This unique promotion with the Windsor-Detroit Tunnel is a great way to
launch the holiday season on both sides of the border," adds Mac Donald.
